The Decade of Destruction
This brilliant documentary series, produced by Adrian Cowell, chronicles the destruction of the Amazon rainforest – perhaps the 20th century’s worst environmental disaster.
Amazonia was the last great frontier. Cowell began filming in 1980 when it was first opened up to settlers and developers. He documented the systematic destruction of the rainforest there into late 1990.
The films follow the real life stories of people caught up in the frontier’s web of need and greed, stories of personal tragedy and great courage. It relate the individual’s struggle to the wider developments going on around them. Together they illustrate the principal issues of Amazonia during the 1980s – its decade of greatest destruction.
The first of the five films in this series will be screened!!
